Rise of the Shadows!

[Moonlost]

"Sorry." Axire said, feeling a little guilty at causing her to jump. "I'll be right back."
He ran swiftly to the nearest three, then climbed up to the topmost branches witha familiar ease. From there, he launched himself into the forest in search of some berries.

[Kira]

Kyuu peeked out from behind Chomp at the two females, still blushing lightly. "H-hi.." She muttered softly, still holding onto her tail, using it almost like a shield infront of her.

[Magnakilro]

Lilith smiled at Kyuu, "You tired little one? Want to come to our campsite?"

[Senna-Umbreon]

Rikki smiled, "Hi." She tilted her head, noticing how scared Kyuu looked, "You don't have to be afraid, we won't hurt you."

[Kira]

Kyuu blushed a bit worse as she stepped a little farther out from behind Chomp. She let go of her tail, feeling slightly foolish. "Sorry it's just..the DUSKS scare me so much that I..I'm a little nervous all the time.."

[Magnakilro]

"Dusks?" Chomp thought, "We're on a mission to stop them!"

[Senna-Umbreon]

Rikki nodded, "Mmhm! We're going to stop them, so don't worry!"

[Kira]

Kyuu relaxed just a bit, smiling at them. They seemed very nice, and she didn't get that bad feeling from any of them. She liked that, a lot. "Can I join you? I don't like being alone.."

[Magnakilro]

Chomp nodded, "Of course you can!"

[Saturo]

"Speaking of your mission...", Glis said.
"Yes, we are headed in that direction as well. Mind if we tag along?", the Unown interjected.

[Moonlost]

Axire, hands full of berries, jumped down from the trees at that point, placing them in front of Kyuu. "Dusk... So that's what the dark oens are called?" He shivered. The slast sliver of light before darkness overwhelms. A fitting name to be sure. "Sorry. I hope these are fine. I got them from the highest branches!" He smiled... Then face palmed. "Sorry, I'm an idiot! Does anone else want any?"

[Senna-Umbreon]

"What Chomp said. You're very welcome to join us!" Rikki smiled.

[Saturo]

Glis cheered happily.
"That means another adventure, just like a few years back!"

[Kira]

Kyuu smiled at all of them, tail flicking as she stood up straight. She liked these pokemon, they were very nice. "Thank you! My name is Kyuu." She blinked at Axire as he returned, sniffing lightly. "Oooh, do I smell Pecha berries?!"

[Moonlost]

"You could tell!" Axire grinned happily. "Glad you like 'em!"
A little more solemnly, he turned to look at the others. "I'd like to come along too, if it wouldn't be a bother. I..." He swallowed, trying to get rid of the nervous knot in his gut "I.. want to see this to the end."

[Senna-Umbreon]

Rikki grinned at Glis, "Yup! Another adventure! Honestly, I'm not surprised." She looked back at Kyuu, "I'm Rikki!"

[Magnakilro]

Chomp nodded at Axire, "You can come! I'm Chomp!"

[Azunara]

Dialga watched the group, grinning. It was good to be adventuring again. As long as Darkrai didn't drag him into anymore kidnapping.

Solara and Eleredar sat a bit aways. The pair of them made too many uncomfortable. It was better to just be shadows, quiet and watching. Speck perched besides Sol, refusing to let the espeon out of her sight. Eleredar rustled his wings, and said, "I'm going to go see where the Dusk are now. Keep an eye on them. If I get attacked, well at least I can't get infected again, huh Sol?" The persian grinned, taking off into the sky.

Solara laid down, head on her paws.

---

The Dusk, destroying the next town, were again purposeless. A small rattata spoke to the charizard in command, "Sir. To the south of us, there's pokemon. I smell two of us with them. They're a small enough force to easily take, but large enough to add to our group."

The charizard grinned. "We head south then."

[Saturo]

These feelings were... Unusual. They seemed a bit... Un-characteristic.
Magnor flew around a bit, dizzy. He felt charged, but at the same time, he felt devoid of energy. He took his rage out on a nearby computer, zapping it with a powerful thunderbolt, and causing it to flash for a bit before bursting into fire. He growled a bit, content with the destruction.

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost looked over at Solara, then trotted over to her, "Hey.. What's up? You seem upset."
